Chapter 107: All the Way West II

Early the next morning, Leader Yang and Lin'er set off quickly. However, Shuang'er was not sure whether they could bring in reinforcements! The situation at home was too complicated, and even an old man like Uncle Yang in the family might not be able to do it.

It is difficult to successfully bring in reinforcements!

In the evening, a group of people set out to escape by staying up all day and out at night. If it is summer, it is really comfortable to stay up all day and stay out at night. The cool breeze blows at night, which not only avoids the scorching heat of the day, but also listens to the chirping of insects.

, even on the road, it is not so lonely! But it is winter now, and winter nights are especially cold. There is nothing but the howling cold wind!

In this way, the group of people suffered a lot, but compared to traveling during the day, traveling at night is more uncertain, and the possibility of being intercepted will be reduced accordingly. This extra torture is considered worth it!

Maybe it was the way of traveling day and night that made the opponent unpredictable, or maybe many parties were not fully prepared. In short, until they left Yanzhou and entered the Sili area, they only encountered one volley. Obviously, this volley

The preparation work was not done well. Before Shuang'er could take action, the opponent had been dealt with, and only two members of the Yang family team were slightly injured.

Now that she has entered Sili, Shuang'er finally breathed a sigh of relief and left the control area of ​​the Yanzhou branch. Probably, Deng Zhan will not appear! Thinking of Deng Zhan's horror, she couldn't help but feel a little chilled!

Resting during the day and traveling at night, a scholar like Tian Fan simply couldn't adapt. Running all night every night, he was cold and tired. He didn't even have the energy to think about anything. He couldn't know where he was. Shuang'er and his party naturally

Won't tell him!

That night, a new moon hung in the sky. Under the hazy moonlight, a group of twenty people walked on horses. Horses are also living creatures and cannot run continuously. Therefore, although the group was in a hurry, they did not run wildly.

!

This is a small road between two hills. Even during the day, few people walk on it. Except for the trees on both sides, there is nothing.

In the front, Yang Jian led eight people to open the way, each holding a torch. In the back, ten people held torches and held back. In the middle were Tian Fan and Shuang'er. As before, the reins of Tian Fan's horse were in Shuang'er's hands.

Under control, even if he had the slightest idea of ​​​​escape, it would be impossible! It had been like this these days, the two of them were in the middle, surrounded by a large group of people in front and back, and Shuang'er suddenly became mute. Asking her questions, she

Basically she didn't answer, and occasionally nodded. Maybe she was stunned by two volleys?

Looking boredly at the mottled tree shadows reflected by the torches and feeling the slightly moving cold wind, Tian Fan was speechless for a while! Hey, when will this kind of tormenting day end!

Perhaps because she left Yanzhou, a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, Shuang'er was in such a good mood that she actually took the initiative to talk to Tian Fan!

"Mr. Tian, ​​is the moonlight nice today?"

Tian Fan was speechless for a while. This girl was talking to him, and this was the topic? Why didn't you say, "The moonlight is so bright, and the air is so fresh"?

"It's okay. The moon at the beginning of the month is so bright. It's pretty good!"

Shuang'er blushed slightly. She really didn't choose the first words of her chat very well! Nodding, she quickly pretended to change the topic, "I wonder if Mr. Tian has any preferences?"

Tian Fan rolled his eyes and said, "What are my preferences? You don't know the answer to this question? Isn't it just to understand my preferences that you contacted Xin'er?"

Shuang'er was surprised. Hearing this, she suddenly turned her head to look at Tian Fan and asked in shock: "Do you think I made friends with Xin'er just to get to know you?" It was probably an accident that went too far. The girl's voice was a little high-pitched, so that the front

Yang Jian, who was clearing the way, turned around and looked over.

Listening to her tone, Tian Fan immediately realized that his guess might be incorrect, and quickly asked: "Then why do you want to contact Xin'er? With her status as Lu Bu's daughter, she won't let you fancy her among millions of people?

"….

Shuang'er couldn't help but laugh. Although her smile couldn't be seen due to the black veil, Tian Fan could imagine that it must be extremely beautiful! Look at the temptation that trembled all over her body!

After finally finishing laughing, she said: "I have heard for a long time that Mr. Tian is very smart, and I finally saw it today! Haha."

Why is her tone so awkward? Tian Fan felt uncomfortable because of her laughter, and said quickly: "My preferences, haha, let me think about it! Food, beautiful women, well, other than that, it seems that they are gone!"

Shuang'er was smiling at first, but after hearing what he said, she suddenly stopped smiling and asked curiously: "Mr. Tian doesn't love money? Doesn't he love power?"

Tian Fan shook his head and asked, "Why do you think I love money and power?"

Shuang'er shook her head and said: "If you don't love money, how could you invent liquor and soap and make more money than ever before in the world? If you don't love power, how could you join Uncle Liu Huang? As far as I know, your husband is now working under Uncle Liu Huang

There, although the official position is not obvious, he is the most trusted person! You have done so many things, including improving farming and improving seeds, isn't it just to ensure that your power is not affected? "

Tian Fan was stunned for a moment, and then said after a long while: "I joined my lord because I didn't want to wait for death. In fact, I don't have much desire for power. The greater the power, the greater the responsibility. I have narrow shoulders and cannot bear it."

Many responsibilities! Improving farming methods and seeds is just to prevent a few people from starving to death in the world! Although now we can only guarantee that people in Xuzhou will no longer starve to death, but... one day, the world of Han Dynasty will be stable!

"As for the invention of spirits and soap, haha, to be honest, when I invented spirits, I really wanted to make money, because at that time my family was only an upper-middle-class family, not very rich. If I didn't make some money, how could I?

Do you have money? Besides, if I work as an official, there will be more things on the scene. If I don’t make some money, will I engage in corruption in the future? Besides, I still have many ideas in my mind. How can I do it without money?

"The price of soap is indeed expensive. Even the cheapest jasmine-scented one costs 500 yuan a piece, the most expensive ambergris-scented one costs as much as 100,000 yuan a piece, the other musk-scented ones cost 50,000 yuan a piece, and the orchid-scented soap costs 500 yuan a piece.

Thousand, five thousand for the peony scent, two thousand for the rose scent. These are not affordable for ordinary people. In this regard, I also want to make money. As for soap, I really don’t want to make money! The price of soap, in my Xuzhou

It’s about fifty yuan a piece, which is not expensive. Many families can afford it! Even a poor family can buy one yuan a year. Why should I set such a low price? Fifty yuan is just the price of one stone of grain.

Why don't I settle on two hundred, or even three hundred? Just because bathing with soap has sterilization...and disease prevention effects, it can reduce the chance of people getting sick. Therefore, I would rather make less money and lower the price of soap.

Go down!

"This is still the beginning. In a few years, when I find a cheaper oil source, the price of soap will drop! This year I will also develop a cheap soap, which will cost about one hundred yuan! By then, the common people of Xuzhou will

Families can also use it!”

After saying that, he shook his head and said, "One hundred yuan is still expensive. Unfortunately, the output is too small now, so this is the only way!"

After listening to his words, Shuang'er seemed to be deeply moved. After a long while, she asked: "The price of soap should be lowered because washing can make people less sick. I understand that Mr. Xiang cares about the world! But why is the price of soap so high?"

It also needs to be lowered? Is there any secret?"

Tian Fan shook his head and said: "Actually, it's nothing. I just think that if the common people have daughters getting married, those women should be able to leave a better impression on their husbands' families after bathing with soap!"

Shuang'er's face turned red. This Tian Fan walked down the third street without finishing a few words. What a talent! But then she thought about it and looked at Tian Fan's clear eyes. Suddenly, she realized that she had misunderstood Tian Fan.

!Which father doesn’t want his daughter to dress up beautifully when she gets married? And what husband doesn’t want his wife to give him an unforgettable memory when they get married?….

If what he said was true to his heart, wouldn't I be a sinner in the world if I tied him up? For the first time, Shuang'er had the slightest doubt about the rationality of this task she had worked so hard for!

Neither of them spoke, and the group fell into silence again. Except for the clatter of horse hooves and the occasional crackle of torches, the whole world was silent!

After a while, Tian Fan said: "I have said so much, should you also tell me some of your information?"

Shuang'er paused obviously, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "My name is Shuang'er. My mother died in childbirth when I was born, so my father and I don't have a very good relationship! I have a grandfather and an older brother."

After saying that, she stopped talking.

Tian Fan waited for a while and saw that she didn't speak, so he asked: "Is it over?"

Shuang'er nodded and said matter-of-factly: "Well, it's over, what else do you want to hear?"

Tian Fan almost choked to death because of her. Well, I wanted to understand something through her words, but after she said them, there was no meaning! The girl's behavior was really impeccable! I guess she wouldn't tell her if I asked her again. It took a long time.

, Tian Fancai asked: "Don't you have any cats or dogs in your home?"

Shuang'er was stunned for a moment, and in an instant a string of laughter spilled out of her mouth, spreading far and wide in the empty night sky!

Suddenly, Yang Jian shouted from the front: "Stop! If there is a situation, be alert!"

After hearing this, the others immediately urged their horses to surround Tian Fan and Shuang'er, got off their horses, built a wall around the horses, and drew out their swords! Shuang'er also jumped off the horse instantly and dragged Tian Fan down.

Tian Fan almost fell to the ground, but Shuang'er gave him a lift! This series of actions were completed within a few seconds, which can be said to be extremely fast!

Shuang'er let go of Tian Fan, instantly pulled out two daggers from her waist, and then asked: "Senior brother! What's going on?"

Yang Jiandao: "Junior sister, there are some big trees ahead, blocking the way!"

After hearing this, Shuang'er felt her head go numb. Could it be that she was ambushed again when she saw her home?

Things in life are like this, the more you are afraid of something, the more likely it will come! Just two sounds of "creak" and "rumble" were heard, and a big tree behind the team slowly fell to the ground, raising waves of flying snow.

!

Immediately afterwards, dozens of torches lit up in the woods on the hills on both sides of the road, and at the same time a rough voice said: "Do it!"

With a "buzz" sound, dozens of feather arrows shot over!
